  [SPEAKER_02]: Welcome back to the Central Indiana Sports Report, Purdue fans for today's reaction to Purdue's 34 to 17 win over the Southern Illinois Salutees and joining me is Jake Gunn with his reaction.
• 0:46
  [SPEAKER_02]: Jake when I was watching the game a lot of times I kind of like that about this oh I kind of like that but a lot of the game I spent going well that's just not going to work again
• 1:00
  [SPEAKER_02]: What did you like and what can serve you?
• 1:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: I tell you what can serve me coming out in a loud 14 first quarter points against S.I.
• 1:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: I know there are ranked FCST but still not what you want to see from the defense that is pretty improved from last year and I think they are.
• 1:25
  [SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, I'd watch the first quarter sure didn't show that.
• 1:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, oh man exactly exactly so I think we're going to give you some props to coax here in the defensive staff on making adjustments to Kind of tighten things down for You know the rest of the game, but yeah, that first quarter was a little rough on the defense, but I guess kind of on the flip side, you know the offense
• 1:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: You know, I saw that it popped up a stat on the game as, you know, the first, first aim in, like, long time for Purdue where they haven't had a punt in the first half, and, you know, props to the defense for eating them clock and going on every drive, I thought that was
• 2:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: That was a kind of a bright side.
• 2:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: I thought Ryan Brown, you know, he impressed me quite a bit.
• 2:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think I'm subconsciously kind of doubting his skill and base off.
• 2:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: We do have a season that went last year, but you know, the Ball State game and the game.
• 2:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: Game.
• 2:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: They get to say you.
• 2:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: They really impressed me with Ryan Brown and, you know, he had some misses still, but he's up.
• 2:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: What a red shirt, sophomore.
• 2:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think a red shirt, yeah, and you start as enjoying it.
• 2:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: I can fully games in the big tent.
• 2:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I think he's going to get better as time goes on so far through two games, completing 65% of his passes.
• 2:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: I so and for almost 500 yards for four touchdowns in one interception.
• 2:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I try not to kind of get my hopes up.
• 2:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: I got to run myself.
• 3:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: But I'm kind of liking what I'm seeing so far from Ryan Brown as well.
• 3:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: You can run the ball and is definitely improved as a as a passer over the the off season.
• 3:13
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, after that rough start and me kind of scratching my head thinking, well, who are they going to beat if they can't stop.
• 3:19
  [SPEAKER_02]: So they're in Illinois.
• 3:20
  [SPEAKER_02]: That being said, they are two and oh, after winning a game last year, they've doubled their win total.
• 3:25
  [SPEAKER_02]: I guess I shouldn't be too negative right.
• 3:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, I guess so.
• 3:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: And veryota starts off.
• 3:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: to know the first Purdue coach to do so since Cleo O'Donnell back in 1916.
• 3:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: So it's been a been a while since that is a bad stack.
• 3:45
  [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah, I remember producer Susan.
• 3:48
  [SPEAKER_02]: I was still dating when Joe Taylor had his first game as produce coach and they lost to a Max team.
• 3:55
  [SPEAKER_02]: I think it might have been Toledo, but don't quote me on that.
• 3:59
  [SPEAKER_02]: And then they turned around and be Notre Dame.
• 4:00
  [SPEAKER_02]: So yes, not even Joe Taylor went to a no crazy.
• 4:05
  [SPEAKER_02]: That is a crazy stat more than 100 years.
• 4:07
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
• 4:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and like I said, produce doubled there.
• 4:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're win total from last year.
• 4:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I think fans are kind of signed a sigh of relief year after seeing the first two games.
• 4:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I think we're really going to find out really a lot about this team next week against USC, having them at home.
• 4:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think this is kind of, I don't want to say the perfect set up for that, but like,
• 4:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: You needed to come out here and win both these games pretty decidedly and I think they've done that, you know, for the most part.
• 4:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: And if, if, if RU can can pull off the upset, I think I saw a line earlier and produce 21.underdog at home against USC, but if Purdue can somehow pull off the upset, it looks like Barry, I don't want to be the first Purdue coach since 1905 to start 3-0.
• 5:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, so now out of early success for for Purdue coaches it looks like By the way, USC has scored 134 points through two games.
• 5:16
  [SPEAKER_02]: I just wanted to point that out So they better come into the game with a better game plan defensively than they did against Southern Illinois That's for sure I think as SI use death of that anger's about 150 yards and 14 points in the first quarter and then the rest of the game
• 5:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: They held up the less than 150 yards and only three.
• 5:38
  [SPEAKER_02]: It was like there was no defense there for many of those plays.
• 5:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: It was, yeah.
• 5:42
  [SPEAKER_02]: It was concerning.
• 5:43
  [SPEAKER_02]: It did get a lot better.
• 5:44
  [SPEAKER_02]: And like you said, Kudos on the adjustments.
• 5:47
  [SPEAKER_02]: That's an important part of the game.
• 5:48
  [SPEAKER_02]: Also coming out with a game plan not to give up 14 points in the first quarter.
• 5:53
  [SPEAKER_02]: And the 150 yards that would also be good.
• 5:56
  [SPEAKER_02]: On offense, Jake, Devon Machibi, Devon Machibi, Devon Machibi was the game plan.
• 6:03
  [SPEAKER_02]: He had the ball more than half of the touches on offense, which is a great game plan against Southern Illinois when you can control it up front.
• 6:12
  [SPEAKER_02]: That said, if they can control the line of scrimmage against USC, is there a chance that Macabe could run for 130 yards again, they can control the pace and stay in that game.
• 6:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think so.
• 6:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: I thought, if you take a look at what Ball State kind of did, they forced Purdue to throw the ball and that's why Ryan Brown burned them for over 300 yards and we quanted.
• 6:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think I saw you saw that and like, okay, well, we kind of got to prepare for that too.
• 6:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: So we can't can't just stack the box like Ball State did.
• 6:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: So that that opened things up for
• 6:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: a little worried after the performance on the ground, it gets ball state that you only had like mock me only had a 50 yards or so.
• 7:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: So it was, you know, you kind of had some some doubts about the O line, but they, they, they, they came out and kind of showed us up, they mocked me around for, for, 120, 60 yards, 32 carries and two touchdowns all career highs for, for him.
• 7:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: So,
• 7:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now to 185 yards on the season three touchdowns and may he just he's got a he's got a Mac for making tacklers miss I mean he's yeah they call him crazy legs and that's that's the perfect nickname for him so there's times where I'm like I don't I don't know how he got out of that tackler or you know kind of dodged a dodged that tackle so yeah he's he's not gonna break a lot of long ones but he's not gonna break a lot of long ones but he's gonna get you those extra yards that's free
• 7:50
  [SPEAKER_02]: And I also thought Ryan Brown was impressive when he ran and I liked when Antonio Harris got the ball as well.
• 7:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 7:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 7:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I don't know if this is starting to be a trend for Purdue.
• 8:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: Continue here.
• 8:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: Start as a walk on and you might be on scholarship now, but yeah, I'm not going to be started as a walk on to.
• 8:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: And you know, we're really impressed with what I've seen from Antonio Harris, Purdue brought in Malachi Thomas from Virginia Tech and everybody can only be up to the season.
• 8:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: and to fit him be in the number two back, but Tony Harris is just kind of taking a spot and so yeah after mocking the parts after this season it seems like if things go well, we might still be in good ends.
• 8:32
  [SPEAKER_02]: And now our Mon Branch has three catches on the year, two touchdowns, both the first touchdown of the game, so is that like the game playing go to him early.
• 8:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think branching and Ryan Brown, I've built a good chemistry, probably stemming from their times and practice on the second, third teams, both in the last year and leading up to this year.
• 8:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: I've built a lot of chemistry, so I don't know if they've got a Randy Moss, Tom Brady type of connection, but it sure seems like they've been impressed with what I've seen from from him too.
• 9:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: Producer Suzy has a question about our favorite Purdue play.
• 9:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: Are we going to finally get a good, a big week from Nitro Tull?
• 9:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, I saw, or it was glad to see him.
• 9:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: I catch that pass for a touchdown and yeah, I think there was there was another pass to find them correctly that he dropped that would have been a pretty pretty big player or a good completion.
• 9:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, I think he's as a season goes on, he's going to get stronger and get better.
• 9:37
  [SPEAKER_02]: And through your legend, of course, yeah, from coach or legend, love the name, love the hair, love the personality.
• 9:46
  [SPEAKER_02]: Now we just want some hundred-yard games out of them and I think they're coming.
• 9:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: Talent-wise, I feel like the last season pretty had a lot of good talent on Purdue, but whether it was coaching or concentration obviously didn't work out last year.
• 10:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I think that the talent might be roughly the same, but overall, it's just the room is just improved quite a bit.
• 10:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I think that they'd have stemmed from coaching and the discipline and structure that
• 10:16
  [SPEAKER_02]: All right, Jake and I will be back later this week with a Purdue report where we'll talk a little bit more about this game and we will preview the USC game and then we will do an official preview of Purdue USC later in the week and then like we're doing right now recap that one and we will do that throughout the season.
• 10:36
  [SPEAKER_02]: Jake sometimes will be joined by guests sometimes it will be just the two of us but really appreciate you joining us and that was a lot of fun.
• 10:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, absolutely, appreciate having me, and yeah, looking forward to it next week.
